Chief Goods: Ask Me An Interview

"Because
I went to a fucking donut shop once in Montreal, and all the staff
spoke French!
And last time I looked - France was on the other side of
the fucking world.
So I say to the people of Montreal - au revoir. Hahahaha!"

- Noel Gallagher on why the High Flying Birds aren't stopping in Montreal

A friend texted me from Atlanta where she was watching Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds perform at a festival. It only took her 20 years but she finally realized how Damme good The Chief really is. Noel's on tour for his well received album Chasing Yesterday and will be playing in Los Angeles next week. Tickets are aplenty on StubHub, part of the bullshit that is TicketMaster. We'll see how I feel on show night but I would like to see him again since we saw him on the inaugural tour. Always known for his passionate and knowledgeable diatribes against humanity and the current state of music, Rolling Stone awarded him a makeshift award for Best Rock Interview.

While in New York, Noel took part in a Redditt Ask Me Anything where the above classic quote came from and performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.
